The Lorenz system is a system of ordinary differential equations (the Lorenz equations) first studied by Edward Lorenz.

Description

It is notable for having chaotic solutions for certain parameter values and initial conditions.

In particular, the Lorenz attractor is a set of chaotic solutions of the Lorenz system which, when plotted, resemble a butterfly or figure eight.
